What I Wore: Surprise Party

Friday night was my aunt’s surprise 44th birthday party, and our whole family celebrated every way that we do everything… a party in my uncle’s barn, complete with karaoke.  It was a blast, and we stayed out (with the kids wide awake!) until 3:30 a.m.  The only pants I had clean were . . . → Read More: What I Wore: Surprise Party

Blog Love: Odd Girl Out

Introducing another regular feature… Blog Love! There are just so many blogs that I love and I’m not selfish, so I’ll share them with you all.   Some things are just too good to keep to yourself.

What I Wore: Dinner At Mom’s

I actually managed to get an outfit picture taken, but it’s definitely not good quality and I definitely was not into modeling.  We were running out the door to go to my mom’s for an early dinner.  My dear husband took the picture with his phone, so what you get is a . . . → Read More: What I Wore: Dinner At Mom’s

Can Not Weight!

Since having my oldest son in 2006, I have been battling the bulge.  Actually, let’s not blame it on the kid, because I have been struggling with my weight for probably nine years (hi, Freshman Fifteen).  Everyone knows that the older you get and the more kids you have, the harder it is to . . . → Read More: Can Not Weight!

DIY: Jewelry Board

Once upon a time, all of my jewelry was contained neatly in pretty little jewelry boxes.  Then, I became obsessed with costume jewelry.  Now I can not contain it in boxes without resulting in a huge tangle, much like this:

Cardboard Furniture

Yep, you read that right.  Everyone remembers those cardboard dressers and storage boxes that were popular before plastic bins and drawers became affordable and available to everyone*.   Well, that is NOT what this post is about!  This is about Nikki, who used a lot of cardboard, paint, and a ton of imagination to create . . . → Read More: Cardboard Furniture

Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

[Edited for grammatical errors, considering I wrote this post in the midst of a horrible migraine.]

I’m not into traditional weddings for myself (obviously), but there are two traditional things I love and I’m doing.  One is a plain gold wedding band.  I got my white gold beauty a few days ago, and it’s . . . → Read More: Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

Wedding Wardrobe Update!

I spent the entire afternoon and evening Monday braving torrential, heavy winds, and COLD.  I was on a mission for shoes.  I needed a cardigan too, but the main objective was to find the perfect shoe to match my dress.  I wanted a round or almond toe pump with at least a . . . → Read More: Wedding Wardrobe Update!
